Oshu City Samurai Housing Museum

Goto Shinpei’s former residence

It is a samurai residence from the mid-Edo period and is designated as a tangible cultural property by the prefecture. The roof is hipped and thatched, retaining the appearance of a lower-class samurai's residence from the mid-Edo period. This is the former home of Shinpei Goto, who was the head page of the Rusu family, and the current floor plan was renovated by Shinpei in his later years.

Esashi Local Culture Museum

``Oku-no-in'', which exhibits the standing statue of Kabuto Bishamonten, a nationally designated important cultural property, and over 100 Chuzen Kannon statues; ``Agricultural Introduction Hall'', which introduces information about Esashi's agriculture through panels and models; It consists of three ``experience buildings'' where you can experience weaving, pottery, etc. Since it is adjacent to Esashi Fujiwara no Sato, why not experience various old-fashioned things while maintaining the atmosphere of the Heian period?

Former Iwayado Kyoritsu Hospital and Mukoyama Park

The former Iwayado Kyoritsu Hospital was built in the 7th year of the Meiji era as the prefecture's first hall of Western medicine, ``Iwayado Kyoritsu Hospital.'' This pavilion-style building, which uses Western-style techniques, is the motif of Kazuo Kikuta's ``Kane no Naru Oka,'' and the melody of ``Kane no Naru Oka'' plays every morning and evening. Mukoyama Park, located on a hill nearby, has a spectacular view, and within the park are the former Goto family residence, which is a nationally important cultural property, and the Yasunari Kawabata Literary Monument.
